Former Limerick defender Tom Condon has backed Clare’s “ballsy” decision to take the Munster final to the TUS Gaelic Grounds.
After Pairc Ui Chaoimh and FBD Semple Stadium were proposed as potential venues for the June 11 showdown, the Munster Council fixed the game for Limerick’s home ground after Clare agreed to it.
Clare inflicted Limerick’s first defeat in Championship hurling in almost four years in the round robin phase on April 29 last at the Ennis Road venue, which is a far more convenient destination for their supporters than Cork or Thurles.
